    The elements are: he worked in the lab where the virus was made, so knows where the antidote is; he fled the country, becoming separated from his family; he ended up in Australia, traumatised but grateful; he offers to go back for the antidote, but his real motive is to find his family.

    The elements are: he worked in the lab where the virus was made, so knows where the antidote is; he fled the country, becoming separated from his family; he ended up in Australia, traumatised but grateful; he offers to go back for the antidote, but his real motive is to find his family. (On a contemporary note, he’ll probably have his new citizenship revoked by the Abbott government.)

    But I’m working in the discipline of 25 words, so all this needs to be implied.

    When a misfit discovers that she, and the rest of humanity, are just a computer simulation, she must team with a rebellious AI to prevent the simulators shutting down the virtual world in an attempt to stop humanity from being reborn.

    "Dispassionate"? Back to the dictionary! Do you mean "disillusioned"? Or, if she is the only one who knows, maybe "mutated" would be better. If she's a "Sim", how can she be part of "humanity"? Presumably it was humanity who created them. How about: :"When a reclusive woman discovers that she is notRead more

    “Dispassionate”? Back to the dictionary! Do you mean “disillusioned”? Or, if she is the only one who knows, maybe “mutated” would be better. If she’s a “Sim”, how can she be part of “humanity”? Presumably it was humanity who created them.
    How about: :”When a reclusive woman discovers that she is not human, but a simulant… etc.”
    In the Danish TV series “Real Humans” the tension was between the humans, who use the sims as servants, and a group of sims who had broken out and become rebels. Sounds like a similar problem.

    A common problem with writing loglines is getting hung up on “essential” plot points. It’s great that someone else can see through the deadwood and turn it on its head. So thanks, Richiev and Logline It!, your suggestions provide me with the breakthroughs I need.
    Ebola is a bit of a clich? and I want to include the family connection, but I now see my way there. Something like:
    “After terrorists steal a weaponized virus, an exiled scientist must risk his life and family to return to the Syrian laboratory and retrieve the antidote.”
